I know this is going to come as a shock to many of you — especially those of you with vaginas who’ve ever encountered European men — but a new study has found that French and Italian men are by far more likely to cheat on their wives than other European men.

Italian men are in joint pole position with their French cousins, with 55 per cent of males from both countries saying that they have had sexual relations with a woman other than the person they were in a relationship with.

British men scored far lower, but were shown to be no angels, with 42 per cent of them saying they had had an affair, according to the survey of nearly 5,000 people in six countries.

The survey, carried out by polling firm IFOP for Gleeden, which claims to be the “premiere international dating website for married people”, comes just a few weeks after President Hollande was snapped leaving the home of actress Julie Gayet on a scooter.

Meanwhile, Irish men were found most likely to get way to drunk to f*ck AND piss all over your toilet seat, followed closely by the Germans.
